My go to fast driving song, or heavy deadlift song, is “Close Your Eyes (And Count to Fuck)“ by Run the Jewels.

I mean, yeah, that’s been a ‘behind the scenes’ cliché for decades. Again, it comes down to specifics as to how much to chalk this up to systemic abuse of power and how much it was just an asshole firing off in the moment.

I have to say, neither Snyder nor Whedon have done much to endear me to them. It’s like... whoever “wins,” I lose.

Ok so he’s finally giving some details as to what happened. And, considering that two former comic book editors have accused DC of years of racial discrimination, this does lend some credence to some of Fisher’s claims regarding the accusations of racism. Why he’s waited three months to publicly give any specific…

Ok I wrote my comment further down, but completely missing from this conversation (unless I skim read lol edit: I did skim read but I don’t think it really got enough mention) is that this comic is drawn by SIX women in rotation, and Bianca is a relatively new edition (2020, but I had seen it growing up in the Buffalo…

What am I missing about the Oregonian response that is so terrible that the author uses it as evidence for why millenials want to kill newspapers? The editor explained the cartoon, and then published a statement from the creative collective responsible. It didn’t pull the cartoon, it didn’t disavow the cartoon. What…

Without context, I absolutely would have seen this as a conservative editorial comic, because complaints about “why can’t I go on a bar crawl with 60 of my closest friends but BLM protestors can congregate in groups” have been rampant from Republicans for months.  If you told me Ben Garrison had drawn it, I’d have…

I see a dumb ass white lady, but I don’t see her being jabbed. This isn’t the first comic that badly failed to get its author’s intent across and it won’t be the last.

But that’s the problem. If everybody is getting all these different interpretations then it probably is not good. This is a political cartoon, not a work of art.

If you “have to explain this comic because everyone is getting it wrong”, you didn’t do it right. That said, her explanation was great.  She should do a comic that relays that message.
I don’t find it offensive and I assume the complaints came from either virtue signaling liberals or disingenuous conservatives.

No. That was a terribly ineffective attempt at communication. It reads as blatantly racist and conservative to me.

Eh, I can see both sides of the argument. At first glance it does seem like it is minimizing the BLM movement, and some of the cartoonist’s arguments (specifically the last ones) are reaching.

I’m holding out for negative percent loans. Pretty sure that means they’ll pay me to borrow their money. Yeah.

“Well let’s get your wife on the phone then!”

Often deferments mean that you can put off paying for however long, then pick up the payments at a later date, extending the end term of the loan.
So, if you bought something today with a 36mo loan, but there is a 3mo deferment you would make your last payment at month 39. Usually (but not always), you’re still…

Reconditioned. 

“I just talked to my boss... Well, he’s never done this before folks. But seeing as it’s special circumstances and all, he says I can throw in a 12-pack of toilet paper.”

That stopped in the mid-90's.  They were deep into cupholder territory by then and had some awesome holders in Mercedes.  

The good people formerly of SAAB would like a word.
